About Me
Hello there! My name is Zayna, and I'm a tutor and business owner based in North London. I'm the founder of London-based tuition agency Shuhari Tuition and I work as a professional tutor. I've got over eight years of experience teaching maths, English, and ESOL. I also tutor students studying for grammar and independent school entrance exams (7+, 11+, and 13+).
In September 2025 I became TEFL-certified. Since then, I've been tutoring English as a second language and supporting students learning general and business English, as well as those preparing for English language proficiency tests such as the IELTS. I'm currently working as a tutor on Preply, one of the largest language learning platforms, and with The Admissions Academy.
I previously worked as a content editor at Salesforce Ben, which is the largest Salesforce news site in the world, with over 400,000 monthly readers and over 1 million page views every month.
Before joining Salesforce Ben, I worked in PR and marketing as an account executive at Silver Buck, the UK's leading digital health communications agency. In this role I produced a variety of marketing materials including blogs, interviews, case studies, award entries, press releases, op-eds, and social media posts for clients in the healthcare space.
While I was studying for my BA in comparative literature at UCL, I worked as a content writer at PPL PWR and covered stories on the environment and sustainability. Additionally, I was a member of Pi Media, UCL's oldest and largest journalism society, where I wrote about music, literature, current affairs, and student life. I also wrote uplifting human-interest stories for positive news site Good News Shared.
